C3CDG: Desolation Row - Discussion Thread

Whichever design we choose, I think black letters on a grey background is clearer and more attractive.

Sabre, I LOVE the skull and crossbones - it depicts us perfectly.....the first design is more striking, but the second design I think is clearer.

And I agree with Trip.....black or dark grey colour.

Can we use the Grim Reaper for our leaderhead? Like, get a gif or jpeg sized correctly and substitute it for the Persian leaderhead in the Conquests folders?

How's this?

[sabrewolf]

great picture

i could resize it but i don't think anybody will replace their leaderheads in the local folders. and we don't see our own figure

but let us use it for our threads

I especially like the skull & crossbones, and agree that black on silver/gray background looks best (but of course, I'm a Raider fan, so that's to be expected ). I'm good with any map settings, and see my sig for my vote on goal and philosophy.

For any of you unfamiliar with the NFL's Oakland Raiders (even though this one's gray on black, it's on a silver helmet, which serves to pretty much reverse the effect)...

[Jon Shafer]

Booo, I protest being labelled by that team's logo.

[marcuspeddle]

That guy sure looks friendly for a pillager.

[marcuspeddle]

But maybe he just enjoys his work.

I also say no to the Oakland Raiders. I'd say yes to Miami Dolphins though, if it didn't make us all look like nancy-boys

Back to one of Sabre's skull and crossbone logos I say. I think the one with the white background is more striking.

Well, at least I don't feel so bad about being a Bears fan ...

Ahh, so this is what I get for underestimating the NFL's appeal.

To be clear, I just wanted to make sure you damn furriners knew what I meant when I claimed Raiderfandom.

Btw snoopy, if the Bears wind up with Ronnie Brown in the first round, you'll be seeing me as a Bears fan, too.

[snoopy369]

Sounds good. Ronnie Brown it is ... make it so ...

Anywho I need some stuff from you all in a PM from 'Lung ASAP: Civ Details!!

the only NFL we ever get to see here is the super bowl. and that's usually too late and too long to watch. i think the only game i ever saw to the end was about 6 years ago (green bay packers vs. ??) where there was a 98 yard punt return (don't kill me if i am using the wrong expressions)

but to be honest... american football is imho nothing more than rugby (imho tough sport) with lots of breaks and paddings. i prefer "real" rugby ...

but enough OT from me. ronnie brown as name? are you sure?


about the skull icon(s): in that case i'll start doing some pixel editing to make it slightly more distiguishable.

[Rcoutme2]

From the Mongol team: You guys are welcome to take the Raiders...but in New England...we know who won the AFC, hehehehehe

[Aqualung71]

ok, quit the irrelevant NFL chat.

I've emailed you all on some important items to finalise. Please respond either here or by email, cos we need to tell Snoop and OPD how we wish to be addressed for all eternity!
